Man if ABC got this wrong....That is the kind of garbage you would expect from the random internet trolls but you better be god damn sure if you are gonna report that 3 or 4 little girls just died.

This likely won't be popular if it's true, but I support it. He was Jordan for a lot of the current generation of players, I can see a lot of guys being in no condition to play.

I can't believe people would lie about these things for clout. Fked up society man...

Nothing new. We live in a world were not everyone is a nice person. I once had a fortunate discussion with a detective who worked on a missing child case. She told me many people called the family asking for money for the supposed whereabouts of the child.

Everything is a mess of misinformation right now but I hope this one is right

I hope it's true because this will be even more heartbreaking.

Kobe would've wanted every1 to play.

Facts!!!! abc is FULL OF SHIT!!! None of the family was on board. Thank you! Finally a reliable source!

I hope the information about his daughters was false

It would make this tragedy even more horrific if children were killed as well

I’m not sure where the report initiated but during the pro bowl they took an abc news break to report it and the reporter speculated to hearing that they were on board. They never brought it up again but millions of people would have seen the speculation

Completely agree. If this is fake. They need to fire this guy.

Night after LeBron passed him in all-time points too...

Reminder that helicopters are death traps and even if I became a multibillionaire, will never step foot it one.

I've had to contemplate helicopter in and out jobs in the past; had an interview with an offshore oil rig once and they straight up told asked me if I could swim and would have to go through submerged helicopter escape drills/testing. I agree they just seem like death traps to me.

Most of today’s brand of journalists are pretty bad people. This is known.

Rick Fox also confirmed not on the Helicopter.

 

[Internazionale]

Hands started trembling when I read the report on my phone. Unbelievable.

No one will goto ABC news after that ridiculous news report. Unreliable bull shit being spewed out on a Lakers legend. The entire World is mourning right now? And you want to throw bull shit at the wind? I swear people should be fired over this.

We live in a world of social media and internet age where everyone tries to be first or break news. It's kind of pathetic. This is not a race. People's lives are at stake.

KD said for guys around his age they were too young to watch/remember Jordan at his peak so Kobe was "the guy" for them

 

[Il Stugotz]

Lots of bad info out there. Gotta be patient

I’m shook. I can’t

 

[John Price]

I can't believe that David Stern and Kobe Bryant are gone. Two figures that helped shape the NBA I followed growing up.

Great reporting so far. Who cares about accuracy?
